"It keeps for days in the refrigerator, but it never lasts that long in my house!"

GARBANZO BEAN AND PEPPER SALAD
I made up this recipe for a cool summer dish to take to a picnic. I just threw together things I had on hand and it became a hit! You may substitute your favorite type of bean for the garbanzos. Any firm bean will do. You may omit the jalapeno altogether. This salad will work as a main course and is very satisfying and colorful. The different tastes and textures are very pleasing. Serve cold.

Courtesy of my wonderful niece The Next Jeneration. She said the inspiration for this recipe is from a local deli in her neighborhood. All amounts given for the ingredients are estimated. Although I dislike thyme, it didn't bother me at all in this recipe. Perhaps I'm warming up to it...? Delicious Mediterranean/French/Greek/Middle Eastern flavors!

Steps:
- Place drained garbanzo beans in a non-reactive salad bowl. Now add the remaning salad ingredients to the bowl.
- Whisk together the dressing and pour over the bean mixture. Stir gently.
- Cover and refrigerate several hours for best flavor. Serve at *room temperature*. The flavor of the salad we discovered is best the next day after it has marinated overnight.
- Garnish with freshly parsley and/or lemon slices if desired. I think the salad would taste delicious served over a bed of arugula or baby spinach.

- Rinse the chickpeas thoroughly: This will remove any excess starch and help the chickpeas absorb the dressing better.
- Use a variety of vegetables: The vegetables in this salad are just suggestions. Feel free to use any vegetables that you like, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, or carrots.
- Make the dressing ahead of time: The dressing can be made up to 24 hours in advance. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
- Serve the salad chilled: This salad is best served chilled. It can be made up to 2 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
